[QUOTE="jal, post: 236073, member: 3477"] klmno, I do not have concrete answers for you as I am just beginning my journey on testing as the neuro we had paid for by ins a few years ago was a crock. I do want you to know that I have followed both of your threads and I truly feel for you and all you are having to endure. After reading your post I have to tell you that my gut tells me your sd if full of ****. I can tell from personal experience and from insider knowledge that the sd can do whatever it wants to do and it sounds to me like your mental health people and the sd's are in kahoots because they don't want to help anyone. I mean really, they basically are telling you, if you change his classification then he may not qualify for an IEP and if you change it he may not get the full testing, but we can't give you the full testing because we don't have staff with the credentials to do it.....it seems like a huge run around to me. They have to evaluate after 3 years - I do not know that a neuro is mandatory, but there are certain tests they do. We are currently working with- a new dr who wants the school to do a WISC IV, NEPSY, BRIEF and Ray Osterrieth test. I don't know if you can ask for these or at least use them as a reference if they tell you what testing they will do. So I am sorry I don't have answers, but I wanted you to know I feel so frustrated for you. You have persued so much. [/QUOTE]
